‘Destressa’ /// ‘DCtressa’ 
'Faz o que eu digo, não faças o que eu faço' / transl. 'Do as I say, not as I do'
This project had the objective to be an interaction between the students in the last year of the Communication Design Graduation (like me) and the new arrivals to this graduation.
From the conversation with the first year student, the objective was to make a Relational System Poster, that would gather all the topics mentioned and others related to them. 

I included:
-a poem that had a really meaningful power to me; 
-the popping bubbles that I took to the student to de-stress; 
-the Heliocentric Theory, that was the way the student felt in the beginning of the new year, because it represented 'change' to her;
-representations of internet, reading and running, that were the student relaxing activities;
-and the Stefan Sagmeister Manifest, that I thought was important for this context.
The other phase of the project was to make a Poster about what we've taught to the student, I came up with the phrase:

'Stress Is Positive When You Share It.'
This was a self learning project that ended up having a positive result. 
So just remember, 'share your stress'.
